I just downloaded this addon the other day directly through my Curse app and when I'm in game, it doesn't show up on my addon's list and doesn't work when I'm in a BG. Is this something common, because I don't see it on the comments list.
Do you plan to support Russian client ?)
Multiple language support is on the to do list and will be added soon.
love the addon
Can you please add a premade option?
It will list players from the same Realm?
example:
/bgs rsp
Outland: DK(Frost), Shaman(ele), Rogue(Sub)
Kazzak: Priest(Disc), ....etc
It will help loads!
Thanks for your lovely addon!
I plan to add a premade report command. Whether or not it will look similar to this I have yet to decide. Some only want it to show the most common realm with a percentage indicator of players from that server. Would you prefer this or for it to show all servers? That includes those with just one person.
I would say a percent based report would be best, and only used if say, there were 5 or more players from the same realm? Just so it doesn't spam too much if there happens to be a few from a realm, which might be a coincidence.
My language is enUS and I run 1.2.0, but I still cannot use any other paramaters other than "/bgs", "/bgs r", and "/bgs fr". Any other command imput is followed by an "invalid command" report in my chat log.
On top of this, I also see people post 40vs40 short summaries, so that it doesnt spam 80 names but only the normal template (plus tanks). I cannot do this and it seems there isn't even a listed command to do so.
So I must ask, are there any libraries or addons that this calls on that might be in conflict? Everything else seems to be in order.
This is by far my most usefull addon ive ever used. ty so much for making this. The one thing i wish it had tho is to show the enemys spec in the nearby list. It would help tremendously
The auto comment would be awsome, as a option if you would like. Also when you add this (IMO) awsome feature, it would be a good thing to have the ability to do it more than once. example, user defined time till bg starts, so peps can respec if they see that they need more healz, dps, tank, ect... and then a final auto comment after the bg starts, so we can see what ended up happining after all or if any changes were made, since you cant do anything about it after it has started.
Somehow can't make this addon to work.
When I write /bgs r or /bgs rf, there is a message in BG chat like this:
Battlegroud> Team Summary:
And no info about any of the teams. If I try /bgs rfh, it doen't even allow me to hit enter.
Am I doing something wrong?
The current version, BG Spy 1.2.0 does not support any language other than enUS. If you are sure that is your language (check by typing "/run print(GetLocale())" into chat) and that you have the latest version then you may have discovered a bug.
Any chance of adding an option to auto report at a specific time?.. Maybe when we have 30 secs left before the battle starts incase people swap specs.. Off by default of course
I like the idea of an autoreporting function. I will add that at some point. Also an option that tells you if someone switches specs and if people leave and are replaced.
I love this addon! Wont go into a BG without BG Spy.
Thanks

BG Spy 1.3.0
After a long holiday I'm looking to get to work on the new version of BG Spy. Features I am looking to implement at this point are support for other client localizations and realm count to check for premades.
As English is the only language I know, I will need help with translation. If you would like BG Spy to work for your locale and are able to help send me a private message on Curse and we can set something up.
For the realm count feature I'm looking for feedback on how you want it to work. It'll probably be either a seperate slash command ('/bgs p') or part of the default summary ('/bgs').
I cannot figure out what command I am doing wrong. I cannot get this to show the above picture like you have. I can do the team report, but just says how many melee, ranged, and healers each team has. I can also show how many on my team (Alliance) we have and what specs, but does not show in color. My main thing is to be able to get this to show what Horde we are facing, not just how many melee, ranged, and healers. Please help as this addon is just epic!!!
You want '/bgs s'. Colour text is not available when reporting to Battleground chat ('/bgs rs').
